Hydro-mechanical simulation of CO2 Injection into a faulted aquifer

<h2>Summary</h2> <p>This dataset contains the results of geomechanical simulations conducted on a faulted aquifer under conditions of CO2 injection. The primary focus of the simulations is the pressure evolution within the rock matrix and along the fault, as well as the associated changes in the mechanical state, including rock deformation and fault slip. Additionally, the simulations explore the sensitivity of fault stability under varying orientations of far-field stress.</p> <p>The dataset includes raw data in VTK format, as well as an illustrative Jupyter notebook that provides a comprehensive explanation of the problem's geometry, boundary and initial conditions, and an interpretation of the observed physical phenomena. The Jupyter notebook is designed to be run both online and locally.</p> <p>These simulations were performed using an open-source FEM-based geomechanical simulator. Detailed instructions for running the notebook, along with a link to the geomechanical simulator, are provided in the description below.</p> <h2>Contributions</h2> <ul> <li>Emil Gallyamov did contribute to the production of the dataset and its visualisation.</li> <li>Isma&euml;l Gomes did contribute to the development of the visualisation interface through Jupyter Notebooks and Streamlit.</li> <li>Guillaume Anciaux did contribute to the development of the visualisation interface and data curation.</li> </ul> <h2>Data collection: period and details</h2> <ul> <li>From 20 April, 2024 to 30 August, 2024, the .pvt and .npy files were generated, curated, and visualisation routines were developed.</li> </ul> <h2>Funding sources</h2> <ul> <li>ENAC Interdisciplinary Cluster Grant project <a href="https://www.epfl.ch/schools/enac/osgeocgs/">OSGEOCGS</a>.</li> </ul> <h2>Notebook demonstration</h2> <h3>Online</h3> <p>An interactive notebook showcasing visualisations of the dataset is available on <a href="https://renkulab.io/projects/phamba/geology-data-visualization/sessions/new?autostart=1">RenkuLab</a>.</p> <h3>Running locally</h3> <p>Alternatively, you can launch the notebook on your computer.
